Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
NOEC (28 d) = 3000 mg/L (effect: emergence rate),
NOEC (28 d) = 3000 mg/L (effect: development rate rate)
Executive summary:

Possible toxic effects of DMF to sediment dweller during an exposure period of 28 days was investigated in a study according to OECD guideline 219.

Results:

NOEC (28 d) = 3000 mg/L (effect: emergence rate), NOEC (28 d) = 3000 mg/L (effect: development rate rate)
